We all have to work. There's no
getting around that. However, is it absolutely necessary to
work outside the home? Perhaps not. Considering the rising cost
of gas, daycare, dry cleaning, even lunch you may be better off
working from home . Additionally, you can be there for your
children when they get home from school, catch a cold or even
have a field trip. Right now , when your children are young is
the best time to work from home.
There are hundreds of thousands of
online job opportunities online. Just do a google search and see
how many results appear. Now in a perfect world all of the
links would lead to legitimate positions. Sadly, that is not
the case. The overwhelming majority of the results will take you
down the path to Scamville. Most want money for a list, a job
registry, materials, a packet of information etc. Then there
are others that will actually hire and train you , allow you to
do the work and then never remit payment. I know because I fell
for one of these myself.
So what a mom to do? Well you
could go Googling each company to see what others have written,
but some saavy companies have found a way around that. Now
they hire marketers to write phoney positive reviews and post
them in forums of the net. So you could easily be deceived into
thinking that a wonderful experience is legitimate when its all
a rouse.
Stop wasting your time! The
scam companies understand your need to be home with your
children. They are successful in business because they have
learned to capitalize on it. So whats a mom to do?

As with any opportunity, you
must do your research before accepting a job offer. As a rule,
legitimate companies will have contact information other than
just email, and will not ask you for money upfront. I do know
that a few companies will ask you to pay for your own background
check . In my experience, even these companies have proven to be
above board.
